Esoterica was exactly what I wanted to avoid. Twisted + FUSE = iTunes playing FLAC. Converting my entire FLAC library would require a lot of esoteric programs that do not work as seamlessly. I'm using a Mac server now, but may decide to move to another platform in the future. But mostly I don't want to re-enter all of my tag information for files that lack appropriate format. I tried that once and found that I was spending as much time re-typing file names and artists as I was converting. This solution, as well as the one Nikhil mentioned would allow me to keep FLAC and use them too. -- kphinney SB3 Rotel RCD-1070 CIAudio DVA-2 w/ VAC-1 PS JoLida 102B Omega Grand 6's PowerMac Zhaolu D2.5 with headphone amp mod.
